The MTC Accessory
The MTC Accessory synchronizes SuperJAM! via MIDI Time Code. Use
this if you have a SMPTE to MIDI Time Code converter and would
like to use it to control the timing of SuperJAM!'s performance.
INSTALLATION
Please read Chapter 12, SuperJAM! and Multi-Media, for installation
guidelines as well as an explanation of SMPTE and SuperJAM!.
OPERATION
As with most Accessories, double click on the MTC icon in the
Accessories window to open its control window. The control
window shows a SMPTE display along with two control buttons.
By default, the buttons are both on. The Activate button enables MTC
synchronization. The Run Lock button maintains continuous
synchronization, once SuperJAM! starts playback. The SMPTE
display shows the current SMPTE time coming in via MIDI.
This is useful because it shows the time even when SuperJAM!
is not running, so you can see where you are in your SMPTE
stripe as well as whether MIDI Time Code is actively coming in.
You need not set the SMPTE type in the Song window Timing menu
because this will be set automatically by the incoming MIDI
Time Code data.
Remember to make sure that your SMPTE Offset matches the offset
of the MIDI Time Code source. Otherwise, SuperJAM! will not
perform because it won't know the correct time to start.
